- I just acquired a TVI965 terminal to replace my ancient HP2621a. I can
- successfully dial in to our departmental modem pool using a Digicom Scout+
- (V.32bis external, DSP based) but the modem never displays anything on the
- terminal while in command mode - that is, after establishing a connection it
- will print a CONNECT message, everything works fine while in data mode, but
- I can't examine the modem state. I do get responses printed in command mode
- while the modem is connected to the HP.
-
- I'm guessing that this is related to hardware flow control in some
- fashion, and have tried fiddling with both the terminal hardware/software
- flow control options and the modem &B and &D commands, but nothing I do
- improves things. In fact, the only observable change I've produced is by
- changing terminal transmit flow control from XON/XOFF to DTR (at which point
- the terminal no longer seems to be talking to the modem) and from DTR to
- NONE (at which point the modem decides to turn on the speaker and the
- terminal starts communicating once more).
-
- Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.
